You do not have AccessLogValve configured?!

I did the following to test how the standard Manager application
handles it.  In 6.0.x and then in current 7.0.x.

1. Configured AccessLogValve in server.xml as following, to print
content-length headers of request and response:

 <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs"
   prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
   pattern='%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b in:[%{content-length}i]
out:[%{content-length}o]'
  />

2. Prepared a two files by concatenating several copies of a zip
archive and renaming it to *.war.

"test.war" is 127,586,991 bytes
"test1.war" is 2,314,844,070 bytes

3. Started Tomcat, logged in into manager and tried to upload the
files as new web applications.

I am using Firefox 11.0, IE 8.0 both on Windows XP.


The results:
1). Uploading test.war (127Mb) in Firefox 11
Tomcat 6.0: OK
The first zip in concatenated file was unzipped as a new webapp.

Tomcat 7.0 Error 500, message
java.lang.IllegalStateException:
org.apache.tomcat.util.http.fileupload.FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException:
the request was rejected because its size (127587196) exceeds the
configured maximum (52428800)

This behaviour of Tomcat 7 is expected, because of setting in its web.xml:
    <multipart-config>
      <!-- 50MB max -->
      <max-file-size>52428800</max-file-size>
      <max-request-size>52428800</max-request-size>
      <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
    </multipart-config>

Access log:
Tomcat 6
127.0.0.1 - tomcat [10/Apr/2012:21:20:27 +0400] "POST
/manager/html/upload?org.apache.catalina.filters.CSRF_NONCE=772A4FDB8109600ACA1BB00FBDE37F07
HTTP/1.1" 200 16044 in:[127587194] out:[-]

Tomcat 7
127.0.0.1 - username [10/Apr/2012:21:17:57 +0400] "POST
/manager/html/upload?org.apache.catalina.filters.CSRF_NONCE=011354881097F245EB93726CF9F99CFE
HTTP/1.1" 500 2972 in:[127587196] out:[2972]

So everything is OK.


2). Uploading test1.war (>2Gb):

Both Tomcat 6 and Tomcat 7 close request immediately, responding with
status 400.

Looking into access log I see wrong value of content-length header
from the request.
The value is different between Firefox and IE, but both are wrong,
being negative.
(Apparently the browsers have different coding for
"multipart/form-data", with different overhead).  The values are the
same for Tomcat 6 and 7.

This is from Tomcat 7 access log:

[[[
127.0.0.1 - - [10/Apr/2012:21:08:31 +0400] "POST
/manager/html/upload?org.apache.catalina.filters.CSRF_NONCE=B5B161E96A5566CCE5FA70AB6477B2B9
HTTP/1.1" 400 - in:[-1980123022] out:[-]

127.0.0.1 - - [10/Apr/2012:21:09:24 +0400] "POST
/manager/html/upload?org.apache.catalina.filters.CSRF_NONCE=2B89705754F848DE99DED1259DC376C1
HTTP/1.1" 400 - in:[-198012301] out:[-]
]]]

The first negative value is from Firefox. The second one is from IE.


I'll try to debug it later.
